Dave Clark Five - Over And Over (Single Version 45rpm / 1958) / HD 720p

"Over and Over" is a song written and recorded by Bobby Day. Day's version entered the Billboard Top 100 in 1958, the same week a version of the same song by Thurston Harris entered the chart. Day's version reached #41, while Harris' version peaked at #96. The most successful version, sung by lead singer and keyboardist Mike Smith, was the only U.S. #1 hit for the Dave Clark Five, one of the early British Invasion bands of the mid-1960s. It followed the group's signature sound of thumping, 4/4 drum beats accompanied by a wailing saxophone. Despite its success in the USA and the popularity of the group on both sides of the Atlantic, the single only reached number 45 in the band's native United Kingdom. The Dave Clark Five (also known as "The DC5") were an English pop rock group. Their single "Glad All Over" knocked the Beatles' "I Want to Hold Your Hand" off the top of the UK singles charts in January 1964: it eventually peaked at number 6 in the United States in April 1964. They were the second group of the British Invasion on The Ed Sullivan Show, appearing in March for two weeks after the Beatles appeared three straight weeks in February 1964. For some time the Dave Clark Five were more popular in the US than in their native UK, but had a renaissance in the UK between 1967 and 1970. The group disbanded in late 1970. On 10 March 2008, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
